Notes and action items

Notes are written automatically after each meeting, and action items are captured, assigned to people and organized without manual entry.

In-person meetings

Mobile apps for iOS and Android and an Apple Watch app record conversations that happen away from a computer.

Jamie records on your Mac or Windows computer instead of sending a bot into the call, so it works with any online meeting platform. The phone app records in-person meetings.
